Catalysis through Temporary Intramolecularity: Mechanistic Investigations on Aldehyde-Catalyzed Cope-type Hydroamination Lead to the Discovery of a More Efficient Tethering Catalyst
摘要:
Mechanistic investigations on the aldehyde-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamination of allylic amines using N-alkylhydroxylamines are presented. Under the reaction conditions, the presence of a specific aldehyde catalyst allows formation of a mixed aminal intermediate, which permits intramolecular Cope-type hydroamination. The reaction was determined to be first-order in both the aldehyde catalyst (alpha-benzyloxyacetaldehyde) and the allylic amine. However, the reaction displays an inverse order behavior in benzylhydroxylamine, which reveals a significant off-cycle pathway and highlights the importance of an aldehyde catalyst that promotes a reversible aminal formation. Kinetic isotope effect experiments suggest that hydroamination is the rate-limiting step of this catalytic cycle. Overall, these results enabled the elaboration of a more accurate catalytic cycle and led to the development of a more efficient catalytic system for alkene hydroamination. The use of 5-10 mol % of paraformaldehyde proved more effective than the use of 20 mol % of a-benzyloxyacetaldehyde, leading to high yields of intermolecular hydroamination products within 24 h at 30 degrees C.

A method for the addition of fluorinated groups to nitrones using an iridium photocatalyst and ascorbic acid as a stoichiometric reducing agent is described. The reaction proceeds through the generation of fluorinated radicals by single-electron reduction of fluorinated alkyl iodides with an iridium complex mediated by visible light. Besides perfluorinated reagents, partially fluorinated alkyl iodides

1,3-Dipolarcycloaddition is a commonly exploited method to access 5-membered chemical entities with a variety of peripheral functionalities and their stereochemical arrangements. Nitrones are isolable 1,3-dipoles that exhibit sufficient reactivity toward electron-deficient olefins in the presence of Lewis acids to deliver highly substituted isoxazolidines. Herein we document that α,β-unsaturated amides

Using the C2-symmetric bis-oxazoline copper(II) catalyst 6f as a chiral Lewis acid, α′-phosphoricenones 2 undergo 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with nitrones 3 to provide isoxazolidines 4 with very high enantioselectivity and endo/exo selectivity.

A reaction of nitrones with 1,2‐dibromotetrafluoroethane affording bromodifluoroethyl‐substituted hydroxylamines is described. The process is performed in the presence of a ruthenium photocatalyst and ascorbic acid as a stoichiometric reducing agent and is mediated by blue light irradiation. The fluroalkylation products can undergo chemoselective transformations involving either N−O or C−Br bonds furnishing
